Box Panel with Lovers Exchanging Gifts |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: Four couples in lavish court costume are placed beneath ogee arches supported by colonnettes. From left to right, the couples exchange a ring, a pet squirrel, a flower, and a bunch of hearts. The background is lightly crosshatched.
On the rear of the panel the date "1417" is written in Arabic numerals. A poem is written in a 16th-century hand in two lines, divided in the center by a configuration which may be the capital letter I or H. The poem reads: Dear lady I love you loyally And pray God that you not forget me And I place myself at your command Without evil intent and without folly. The date and inscription are 16th-century additions. There is a large series of holes for the original mounts, some of which have been filled with plaster. A break and chip occur on the right end. |
